Graphical user interface testing (GUI testing) techniques have been widely used to test the functionality of Android applications (apps) and to detect faults for verification of the reliability and usability of apps. To adequately test the behaviors of apps, a number of studies on model-based GUI testing techniques have been performed on Android apps. However, the effectiveness of model-based techniques greatly depends on the quality of the GUI model, because model-based GUI testing techniques generate test inputs based on this model. Therefore, in order to improve testing effectiveness in model-based techniques, accurate and efficient GUI model generation has to be achieved using an improved model generation technique with concrete definition of GUI states. For accurate and efficient generation of a GUI model and test inputs, this study suggests a hierarchical GUI state comparison technique and evaluates this technique through comparison with the existing model-based techniques, considering activities as GUI states. Our results show that the proposed technique outperforms existing approaches and has the potential to improve the performance of model-based GUI testing techniques for Android apps.

NUI(Natural User Interfaces) has been developed through CLI(Command Line Interfaces) and GUI(Graphical User Interfaces). NUI uses many different input modalities, including multi-touch, motion tracking, voice and stylus. In order to adopt NUI to legacy GUI applications, he/she must add device libraries, modify relevant source code and debug it. In this paper, we propose a gesture-based interface model that can be applied without modification of the existing event-based GUI applications and also present the XML schema for the specification of the model proposed. This paper shows a method of using the proposed model through a prototype.

In these days, the technical advances and complexities have generated much of the difficulties in managing the project resources, both time and costing to accomplish the project in the most efficient manner. The project manager is frequently required to render judgements concerning the schedule and resource adjustments. This research develops an analytical model for a schedule-cost and risk analysis based on visual PERT/CPM. We used a two-step approaches ：in the step 1, a deterministic PERT/CPM model for the critical path and estimating the project time schedule and related resource planning, In the second step, we developed a heuristic model for crash and stretch out analysis based upon a time-cost trade-off associated with the crash and stretch out of the project. Computer implementation of this model is provided based on GUI-Type objective-oriented programming for the users and provided displays of all the inputs and outputs in the form of visual graphical. Also developed GUI-type program, Dongeui Visual-PERT/CPM. The results of this research will provide the project managers with an efficient management tool.

MVC(Model-View-Controller) architecture is well-known for high maintainability and it makes efficient development possible. Recently, it has been applied in many fields such as web, desktop and mobile applications. Therefore, effective testing for this architecture is strongly needed. Although much research has been done, there was not much efforts for exploiting MVC architecture in GUI testing. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme for efficient and accurate GUI testing for MVC based applications. In this study we separate original state diagrams into view state diagram and model-controller state diagram. Then, we present a case study showing the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

본 논문에서는 격자 기반의 2차원 침수해석 모형인 G2D(Grid based 2-Dimensional land surface flood model)의 GUI 개발에 대해서 기술하였다. G2D 모형은 ASCII 래스터 포맷의 DEM을 이용하여 정형 사각격자로 구성되는 침수모의 도메인을 설정하고, 수위, 수심, 유량 등의 경계조건과 강우와 유량을 연속방정식의 생성항으로 사용하여 2차원 침수모의를 한다. 주요한 침수모의 결과는 ASCII 래스터 포맷을 가지는 수심과 수위 등이다. 이와 같이 G2D 모형은 ASCII 래스터 파일을 주로 이용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 우선 래스터 파일의 전후처리와 침수모의 결과의 가시화에 대한 편의성을 높이기 위해서 GIS 소프트웨어를 이용하여 GUI를 개발하고자 하였다. 이와 더불어 사용자들이 소프트웨어 구매 비용에 대한 부담을 없애고, 편리하게 사용할 수 있는 오픈소스 소프트웨어를 이용하고자 하였으며, 이 두 가지 조건을 만족할 수 있는 QGIS를 이용해서 G2D 모형의 GUI인 QGIS-G2D를 개발하였다. QGIS-G2D는 QGIS의 plug-in으로 실행된다. QGIS-G2D는 G2D 모형의 실행에 필요한 프로젝트 파일(.g2p)을 GUI를 이용해서 만들 수 있으며, 모의결과를 애니매이션 등으로 가시화 할 수 있는 후처리 기능을 포함하고 있다. 또한 QGIS-G2D는 DEM 수정 기능과 같이 G2D 모형의 입력자료 전처리를 위해서 QGIS plug-in으로 제공되는 여러 가지 기능을 함께 이용할 수 있다. 또한 물리적 분포형 강우-유출 모형인 GRM(Grid based Rainfall-runoff Model)의 QGIS plug-in인 QGIS-GRM과 연계하여, 유역 유출모의와 침수모의를 QGIS 환경에서 함께 수행할 수도 있다. 개발된 소프트웨어는 오픈소스 플랫폼인 GitHub(https://github.com/floodmodel/)를 통해서 제공된다. 본 연구를 통해서 홍수해석에 필요한 강우-유출 모의와 침수모의를 위한 모형을 제공하고, 이를 편리하게 활용할 수 있는 오픈소스 소프트웨어를 제공할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구들은 홍수 분야의 전문가들에 의해서 다양한 분야의 홍수해석에 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Development of the reliability-based design program in the GUI environment is inadequate for engineers familiar with the deterministic design to deal with the international design criterion based on the probabilistic design. In this study, the design program based on the GUI environment is developed in order to more efficiently input the design factor and more easily carry out the design works. The GUI environment is the GUIDE (Graphic User Interface Development Environment) tool supported by the latest MATALB version 7.1. In order to test the model reliability, the probabilities of failure (POF) on the breakwater armor block (AB) and gravity quay-wall (QW) in the sliding mode are computed using the model in the Level II and Level III. The POF are 55.4~55.7% for breakwater AB and 0.0006~0.0007% for gravity QW. A non-GUI environment program results of the POF are 55.6% for breakwater AB and 0.0018% for gravity QW. In comparison, the POF difference is negligible for breakwater AB because the exact input design parameters are available, whereas the large POF difference, but within the same order, for gravity QW can be explained by the difference of the input design factors because of the poor input data information.

A power-plant simulation tool has been developed for training the plant operators and testing a plant control system. The simulation tool is composed of a graphic editor, a component model builder and a system simulation solver. Such new programing techniques as object-oriented modeling and GUI(Graphical User Interface) are employed in developing the simulation tool. The graphic editor is based on the OpenGL library for effective implementation of GUI while the component model builder is based on object-oriented programming for efficient generalization of component models. The developed tool has been verified through the simulation of a real power plant.
